Chapter 219 Looking for trouble again

Ye Mingzhu would not take the initiative to cause trouble for Uncle Ye's family, but if there was chaos in their own family, she would be willing to watch the fun.

Jiang Hongyu nodded: "Okay, these are not a big problem. I will have someone take care of your cousin secretly."

The next morning, Jiang Hongyu was going to take a large number of people to the island, and he was a little worried about Ye Mingzhu.

"After we go to the island tomorrow, let Uncle Yan take you back to town, right? Otherwise, I'll be worried about you being the only one left at home."

Ye Mingzhu also thought about this problem. Now that she has space, she will not encounter any danger. However, it will be a bit troublesome to explain it later.

Plus, she couldn't cook, so going back to town was the best option.

"Okay, once you guys leave, I'll be ready to go back to town."

Uncle Yan came with Yu Jiaming and the others this time, but he did not appear in front of everyone.

Jiang Hongyu went to the island, and Uncle Yan wanted to stay to protect Aunt Jiang and her daughter-in-law and not let them get into danger.

Yu Jiaming originally wanted Aunt Jiang and her daughter-in-law to move to the county town, but Jiang Hongyu directly refused, saying that they would be fine in the town and there was no need to go to the county town.

Jiang Hongyu did not tell Ye Mingzhu about this. He felt Yu Jiaming's care for Ye Mingzhu.

But the Yu family didn't want Yu Jiaming to recognize Ye Mingzhu as his sister, and Ye Mingzhu didn't seem to care. There was always some awkwardness when the two of them got along, so it was better for them to see each other less often.

Ye Mingzhu told Jiang Hongyu that she would send him off early the next morning, and then urged him to go to bed.

The next day, Jiang Hongyu and Ye Mingzhu went straight to the beach after breakfast.

The seashore was crowded with people. Someone in official uniform was calling out names one by one. After confirming that the names were correct, they let everyone get on board.

Jiang Hongyu went to the front. When Sister-in-law Ying saw her, she waved her hands vigorously and greeted her. She walked over and stood with Sister-in-law Ying.

"Sister-in-law, you came really early today." She said with a smile.

Sister Ying stuffed the cake in her hand into hers and said, "This was just made this morning. It's still hot. Come and try it."

Ye Mingzhu wanted to return the meat pie to her, but Sister Ying dodged to the side and said, "I've eaten it. I brought this for you."

She broke the meat pie in half and gave her half: "I've had breakfast, let's each have half."

This meat pie is made of white flour and may not be available to the whole family. She probably made it for Ye Lang. How could she have the nerve to eat it alone?

Sister-in-law Ying was holding half a meat pie, her heart full of emotion. Although her family lived a good life, such meat pie was a waste of oil, so they seldom made it. It was only today that Ye Lang was going to the island, and he would be gone for many days, that her mother-in-law was willing to make a few.

In addition to the ones she brought for Ye Lang, there were three left. She gave two to the old woman, and her mother-in-law asked her to keep the remaining one in her pocket and eat it when she was hungry.

She couldn't bear to eat it, so she wrapped it in oil paper and gave it to Ye Mingzhu.

"Sister-in-law, eat quickly." Ye Mingzhu's urging interrupted her thoughts.

Sister Ying took a bite of the meat pie. The aroma of pork mixed with the soft dough made her reluctant to swallow it.

"Sister-in-law, are those people here to see us off?" Ye Mingzhu pointed at the crowd not far away.

There were both men and women among those people, and some of them did not look like people from their village.

"When we were recruiting miners yesterday, some people who went to sea a while ago were not recruited. I guess they came here to try their luck today." Sister Ying really knew what was going on.

"I heard that some time ago someone collected pearl oysters and kept the pearls for themselves, and they were discovered by the government."

"They just came to take a look, they didn't dare to cause trouble."

Just as Sister Ying finished her words, there was a commotion over there. A crying woman's voice angrily asked, "Why won't you let my husband get on the boat?"

Ye Mingzhu didn't recognize the female voice. Sister Ying rolled her eyes and stuffed the meat pie in her hand into her mouth: "This Lu family is looking for trouble again."

"Mingzhu, let's go and take a look." Sister-in-law Ying's eyes were full of excitement of watching the fun.

"Who is Lu?" Ye Mingzhu dodged her greasy hands and handed her a handkerchief to wipe her hands.

"That's Lu Jingya." Sister Ying wiped her hands and looked at the handkerchief: "It's a little dirty. I'll go back and wash it and return it to you."

The handkerchief was sewn for her by Yunniang after she came. It was a plain handkerchief without any pattern. She waved her hand indifferently.

However, she was a little curious about Lu Jingya, who was starting to make trouble again as mentioned by Sister Ying.

"I'm telling you, ever since Lu Jingya got married, she's either been unwell or slow at work, and your uncle's family has been causing a lot of trouble."

"When your eldest cousin's wife was in confinement, the Hu family sent her some eggs. She said her stomach felt uncomfortable, she felt weak, and she felt unwell, so she ate half of them."

"Your eldest cousin's wife didn't say anything, so the Hu family came and killed two of our chickens. She wanted to eat one, so they ran to the Lu family and scolded her. She just lay on the ground and said she had a miscarriage."

"Your aunt had no choice but to kill a chicken for her."

"Alas, your uncle's family is living in chaos now," Sister-in-law Ying shook her head.

"Let's go and take a look. She's causing trouble again. Let's see who gets hurt in the end."

Ye Mingzhu didn't want to go, but Sister Ying dragged her over.

Lu Jingya put her hands on her hips and held her belly. There was a vacuum zone around her and everyone stayed away from her. She was still crying.

"What happened to my brother Kang? Why don't you want him?"

Sister Ying pulled over a young wife next to her and asked in a low voice what was going on.

When the young wife whispered that Ye Yunkang was not on the list of people boarding the ship today, Lu Jingya started making trouble and insisted on letting Ye Yunkang board the ship.

Seeing that more and more people were gathering around, Ye Mingzhu frowned and stood on tiptoe to look forward.

Jiang Hongyu was at the front and wanted to go over, but Ye Wu stopped him and asked someone to go find Xiao Wu quickly.

Soon, Xiaowu and Fu Chengyun came together, and Ye Wu whispered a few words in Xiaowu's ear.

Before Xiaowu could say anything, Fu Chengyun stepped forward and shouted, "What are you doing? Do you want to do it or not? If not, get out."

Lu Jingya was stunned. She looked at the brocade robe on Fu Chengyun, her face flushed and pale, and finally she gritted her teeth and cried, "Sir, they won't let my husband get on the boat. They are bullying..."

If you ignore Lu Jingya's belly, it's definitely a little white flower.

Fu Chengyun glanced at her and said, "So what if I bullied you? Who is her husband? Take him away and beat him up. You are looking for trouble with me. I am the ancestor of trouble-making."

The surrounding discussions quieted down, and someone burst out laughing. Fu Chengyun looked at the crowd: "Why, does anyone have any objections?"

The scene was silent, and no one spoke. Fu Chengyun then continued, "If you have any opinions, keep them to me."

Sister Ying leaned on Ye Mingzhu's shoulder and whispered, "This gentleman is really interesting."

Ye Mingzhu also covered her mouth and laughed. She didn't know that Fu Chengyun was such an interesting person.
